Recopilación: Delicate

The Delicate look: ruffles, lace and volume

The Verona Ruffle Maxi Dress sums up the brand: an A-line floor length cut with an off-shoulder neckline, cape sleeves and layered ruffles. The Sia Asymmetric Maxi Dress is more sculptural, with a square neckline and hand-applied applique, and the Kendall A-line Plunge Neck Lace Floor Length Dress is the lace option for formal evenings. The Blossom Bubble Mini Dress and Alina Babydoll Mini Dress show the shorter, playful side, with gathered bubble hems, bell sleeves and ribbon details.

Midi lengths are a strength. The Merri Collared Button Midi Dress and Celis Straight Across Midi Dress are polished daytime pieces, while the Wendy Strapless Gathered Tulle Midi Dress and Lona Strapless Draped Trerena Taffeta Midi Dress are made for parties. Many pieces come in white or ivory, which is why Delicate turns up so often in bridal shower and engagement shopping.

Skirts, tops and jackets

Delicate separates are designed to pair. The Glory Ruffle Skirt and Glory Peplum Top form a structured set with applique at the hem, and the Gemma Gathered Flared Tulle Midi Skirt or Capri Tiered Ruffle Trim Tulle Maxi Skirt can be worn with a plain knit. The tweed group, including the Rowena Straight Long Sleeved Tweed Jacket, Elysia A-line Patch Pocket Tweed Mini Dress and Eira Cropped Collared Neck Tweed Jacket, is the brand's answer to cooler weather and office days.

How does Delicate fit?

Bodices are fitted and skirts are full, so choose your size by bust and waist. Strapless and off-shoulder styles have internal structure and sit best when the bodice is snug. Tulle and taffeta skirts hold their volume, so allow for it when planning seating or travel.

Which Delicate pieces work for a white dress event?

The Sandy Sheath Ruffle Layer Lace Maxi Dress, Luna Straight Across Applique Midi Dress and Erica A-line Illusion Neck Lace Midi Dress are the most requested white styles. More are in white midi dresses and A-line dresses.
